And I'll give you a billion dollars if you can find me a person who has never been distracted, tired, made an error in judgement, failed to see something in plain view, or is just a plain old crappy driver.

No one is saying self driving cars will be 100% accident free, but I can guarantee that in short order we'll be able to produce something that will reduce car accidents to a pretty rare occurance.

Oh, and on a side note, I've got a 15 year old calculator, a computer, simple as it may be, that has never glitched, or frozen on me. You can make that cheque out to Mr. Bring_Back_Shantz.
